OK, latest update and schedule....

Saturday Jan. 20 (updated 1/13)

8am-9am --------Inprogress (stock turbo w/ boltons)
9am-10am ------Slowcar (stock turbo, boltons, meth)
10am-11am ----Zeus (WR, akly)
11am-12pm ----Dubbleugly (50trim, meth)
12pm-1pm ------Lunch
1pm-2pm ------Kee1pride (stock turbo, cams, maybe more)
2pm-3pm -------tkdabb22 (stock turbo w/ boltons)
3pm-4pm -------Swordfish (stock turbo,cams, meth)
4pm-6pm -------Epidemic (GT3071, stroker, cams, etc)
6pm-7pm -------Open

I added an hour lunch break, which also it puts a little "flex" in the schedule if we run into difficulties. We can probably squeeze one more in, if we cut lunch to 30 minutes and things go well. This is shaping up nicely.

no flaming hot cheetos at this dyno day... that's cheap a$$ gehtto crap, we'll be doing the full fledged tostitos and jalepeno slices. Can someone bring some extra air freshner for the "john" after lunch????

Mitsuorder, are you going to be our guest of honor for the event? I can hear you now..... "umm, sure.... raise the boost 3 more #'s, let's see what she'll really do!" It'd be nice to see you there.

if the female of the species is not happy, no one is happy! Do what you gotta do to keep the peace.

I think we can fit one more in. Obviously it will be dependent on how quickly we can turn the cars around, but for basic bolt on's, which most on the list have, I think it should go quickly. We're at the mercy of EngineLogics after 10 hrs. It'll be up to the shop to decide how late we can use the dyno. I know he respects his neighbors in the area, and he won't want to run the dyno too late, but I think we can squeeze another in within the time alotment.

not the whole undertray, but there is a access panel that is held in place by 4 phillips head screws, right in the center of the car towards the front, that once removed will expose a tow hook we need to use. It's on the same cross member that the front motor mount is tied to. The panel is about 1'x1'.

If your undertray is already off, that's cool, but removing that access panel is a lot easier than pulling the whole undertray.

I don't know of anyone who does this specifically, but most of the kits are straigtforward and easy to install if you want to do it yourself. The usually come with detailed instructions that make it easy. But you will be mouting hardware in the engine bay, running lines into the cabin and mounting controllers, LED's, etc. in the cabin, so it's a bit time consuming. Easy, but time consuming.

Which kit are you going with? Slowcar probably would be a good resource to ask about which kit to install, and what to be aware of.
